About Andrew

I am a multi-faith spiritual and religious care provider (also known as a chaplain). My strength is working with anyone’s faith and spirituality to help them with their mental health and spiritual journey. I work with all faiths and religious. In my practice, I see each client as a complex and unique person with stories, worldviews, and challenges. My goal is to aid you in accessing your inner resources such as the experiences you cultivate from your stories and the beliefs that find root in your worldviews to cope with challenges.

As a spiritual care provider, I take a holistic approach that does not shy away from integrating religious or spiritual beliefs to maximize my client’s wellbeing. Using tools such as narrative therapy and meditation among many others, I assist clients in accepting the past, understanding the present, and moving forward toward the future.
